Posted from promo a couple of weeks ago which we believed at
the time was due out on 21 Nov, but which has only just appeared on
Spotify.
It's a new single by Will Wheaton which is a cover of Michael Jackson's "Lady In My Life" written by Rod Temperton included on the "Thriller" album (which has been reissued in a 40th Anniversary edition
recently). Jackson never released it as a single. Another version of the
song featured on the Bemaji Tillman "Algorhythms" album in the last month.
This is a classy rendition with shades of Will Downing in his tone, so
it may not surprise you to learn that he has written songs for Downing
as well as Tevin Campbell, EWF, Anastacia. Dare I say it, I prefer this
version to the MJ original.
Will was born in Mississippi and raised in Los Angeles and has a
background in gospel. In 1992 he won Dick Clark's USA Music Challenge
talent contest and received an MCA recording contract. He has released
two albums "Consenting Adultz" (1998) and "Old School Soul" (2005) and has worked extensively as a backing vocalist for the
likes of Michael Bolton, Natalie Cole, Coolio, Celine Dion, Michael
Jackson, Quincy Jones, Luis Miguel, Montel Jordon, Kenny Loggins,
Whitney Houston, Diana Ross, Chaka Khan, and Rod Stewart and this year
has featured on Michael Bublé's current album "Higher".
